The Congressman, Rep. Duncan Hunter, went on Fox News and broke the news to the United States and to the world, that ISIS is not only working hard to gain access to the US homeland, in fact says Hunter, they already have gained access and “at least 10” ISIS members were caught while crossing the southern border!
Be afraid America, be very afraid!
“ISIS doesn’t have a navy, they don’t have an air force, they don’t have nuclear weapons,” he added. “The only way that ISIS is going to harm Americans is by coming through the southern border – which they already have.“
“If you really want to protect Americans from ISIS, you secure the southern border — it’s that simple,” the San Diego Republican said. “They caught them at the border, therefore we know that ISIS is coming across the border. If they catch five or 10 of them then you know there’s going to be dozens more that did not get caught by the border patrol.”
When pushed by the Fox Host to explain how he got the information, Hunter said that a border patrol agent told him about the capture. Of course, ICE – Immigration Customs Enforcement – has already called the Republican congressman a liar, saying that there has been no such capture at any US border, but that is not going to stop people like Rep. Duncan Hunter from jumping on an opportunity to scare the American people into electing Republicans to close the border that Obama apparently opened. We all know there was not an opened border with Republicans ran the show!
Republicans have used every issue to try and scare Americans and blaming Democrats and the President for ISIS is no different. The terrorist group is a prime target for the Republican party trying to win the Senate in November 2014, and everything the terrorists do, is of course, Obama’s fault.
They claim the president is to be blamed for the development of the group and that the president is not securing the border. So joining the two issues – ISIS and The Border – just makes perfect sense for the opportunistic Republican. It is apparently the Democrats fault that the imaginary ISIS members are coming through the border to kill you as you sleep!
It’s all I can do to NOT throw something at the TV when I see the BLATANT lies that Lamar Alexander and his Koch buddies are spewing to the already-ignorant-and-racist rednecks here in TN. I don’t know about “keeping the base riled up”…….it’s sure working on the rest of us. (wink wink)
So true judi, so true, And they do it because their base can’t tell the difference.
If it wasn’t for LIES and fear mongering…….these idiot Repubs wouldn’t have anything to say……
